News from September 24.

Seattle signed first round draft pick (#26) Sherrell Ford.  Terms of the
contract were not disclosed, but per the new rookie cap, as the 26th pick,
Ford will make within 20% of $430,000 for the first year and it is a 3
year contract.

Last note on Dana Barros' contract with Boston: the Boston Globe reported
that their initial figure of $32 million for Barros' contract was
erroneous and that the contract is actually worth $20.8 million.  (Thanks
to Tabor Wells for this information.)
